I'm listening to Fresh Air on NPR. Daniel Ellsberg is talking to Dave Davies answering questions and giving his version of the events of fifty years past, when he was a young employee of RAND Corporation, and how his consciousness evolved in the matter.

I'm remembering how fifty years ago as a high school student I had a chance to visit The Soviet Union with my Russian teacher and fellow students, and was able to buy a copy of "Pentagoni Bumagi" on the street in Leningrad. Pretty sure I still have it.
